Swansea confirm training ground brawl: They often happen

Swansea City have confirmed today's reports of a brawl within ranks last week.

It's been revealed a bounce game last Wednesday ended with punches being thrown between six Swans players.

A Swansea spokesman told BBC Sport: "Yes, there were a couple of incidents between certain players, which the club does not condone yet understands.

"They were quickly dealt with and everyone moved on.

"These things often happen on training grounds up and down the country, so despite the media reports, Swans fans shouldn't be concerned.

"The squad had just returned to training on the back of a disappointing defeat at Hull and their frustration at not getting the result they wanted boiled over during a full 11 v 11 practice match between the group."
